BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--HighRoads,
the industry leader in health care compliance
and benefits management, today announced that its clients, Tashi
Theisman, Director, Global Benefit Operations at Dell Inc. and Lisa
Gomez, Senior Benefits Analyst at Con-way, have each been recognized as
winners of this year’s “Solutions Superstar 2012” by CDHC Solutions,
the official publication of “The Institute for HealthCare Consumerism
(IHC).”

Each year, the IHC recognizes those who go above and beyond in executing
innovative health and benefit management programs, or providing those
solutions to organizations. The organization has recognized Dell with
its “Most Effective Plan Implementation” award for its superior
implementation of a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) technology from
HighRoads. The HighRoads solution enabled Dell to successfully complete
all of its required Summary Plan Descriptions (SPDs) and self-insured
Summary of Benefits and Coverage (SBC) documents, on time and in
compliance.

As a result of this implementation, Dell saw a 347%
return on investment while enabling greater efficiencies and higher
productivity for our internal human resources staff.

IHC has also recognized Con-way with its “Most Innovative Employee
Education/Communication Award.” Faced with the need to quickly update
six employee benefit handbooks in various states of completion, Con-way
turned to automation to streamline what was once a very labor intensive,
manual process. Leveraging technology from HighRoads to automate the
creation of Con-way’s benefits compliance communication materials, the
company was ultimately able to meet its stringent requirements for
delivery timing, accuracy and efficiency.

“HighRoads helped to not only improve delivery efficiency for our
employee benefits handbooks, they also helped us to improve their
organization and readability so that our employees would get more from
these valuable documents,” said Gomez. “What we ultimately delivered
were effective materials that were easier to read and had a better flow,
while also meeting critical compliance regulations.”

Dell and Con-way join the growing list of HighRoads customers to be
recognized for benefits management innovation, vision and successes.
Other HighRoads customers to receive past industry awards for their use
of innovative benefits management technology include: AT&T,
Boeing, NEEBco, Pitney Bowes, and Staples.

HighRoads was also recognized in this year’s CDHC Solutions
“Solutions Superstars 2012” awards program as the “Most Effective
Solution Provider,” for its smart phone app that allows employers to
provide legally-compliant SBC materials to plan participants on a mobile
device.

“We are pleased to see Dell and Con-way recognized for their significant
achievements,” said Michael Byers, CEO, HighRoads. “Technology is
changing the way organizations are able to more quickly respond to
increasing, yet critical, requirements around benefits management and
compliant communication. At HighRoads we have developed proven solutions
and processes to make the most of technology to deliver significant
improvements in the areas of cost control and participant empowerment,
while assuring ACA compliance.”
